Not wtd anymore. A length of scrawny cable!
Before I throw myself at the mercy of Ebay or buy a 50m reel from RS, has anyone got some lightweight two core cable so I can extend my speed sensor
cable for my Vapor Dash. I can't see myself spending my hard earned on the correct Trail Tech cable just for the convenience of it having the
correct plugs on the end as I've already stood on the one fitted to the end of the switch cable and crushed it! About 1.5 meters would get the
dash tied to the sensor bolted to my rear subframe.
Cheers, Owelly.

Had a quick look in the stores and no 2 -core, but got some 3-core 0.5mm sq. I could pop a couple of metres in an envelope if it is not too big for
you.

the dozens of phone chargers/plug top transformers?!

Just make sure it's well screened otherwise you'll be prone to getting interference.

Nah, my head is made of jam. The original cable doesn't appear to be screened so I'm hoping it'll be ok. Not that there's much
electricity in the car anyway!
